Waking up in a cold sweat
Your memories stick to my skin
I swear some nights my dreams begin with scenes so vivid
I feel like I'll lose myself in the past and
If I don't relive these moments
I'm afraid that the few memories I have left of you won't last
And you'll turn into nothing more than a ghost
But of all the time we spent together
It was actually the beginning that I remember the most
Because the first time I made you smile
It felt like the warmth of the sun had made its way inside for a while
I mean, I could try forever to compile a list of things to describe it but
I'd get lost in a sea of words so deep it'd be hard to keep my head up
The tender warmth of your lips made it hard to resist
And even though past relationships had left you in bits and pieces
I promised that I would love you in all your imperfection
